I decided I wanted this because I wanted to install Bundle::DBI and this was the only component that would not compile in a straight forward manner. It is not clear to me if I actually will need PlRPC, but I am trying to get an instance of Slash 1.0.9 running on a new box, and I don't really know yet.

I've spent several hours trying to read the innards of the module, searching the Web for previous postings, and trying a bunch of long-shot solutions. So far, I am frustrated.
